We stayed here for a week over Christmas and found the property and facilities to be of a very high quality and we would have no issues recommending this property. Having a spa on your doorstep which we found we regularly had all to ourselves was amazing! Christmas Day started with a swim and sauna, breakfast and then the usual presents and drinks. We will return! Staff very friendly and helpful. Thank you to Ed and Paul.

We booked our honeymoon at Swallow's Orchard with high hopes - and it was everything we'd dreamed of and more! We wanted a luxury holiday that was also dog friendly and this it was. Our retired racing greyhound loved running up and down the garden whilst we were free to relax and sip champagne in the hot tub. The booking was easy and efficient with excellent communication from the owners. We were met by Ed who was friendly and welcoming. We were given complimentary flapjacks and cider and booked in for massages at the spa (a few metres away from our front door). It felt like we were in the middle of nowhere, a lovely quiet road and farmland yet we were in easy reach of Glastonbury and Street. From one of the gorgeous bedrooms we could see Glastonbury tour. Only problem (probably due to the late summer) was the flies, our windows were infested but contained to the living room. Otherwise it was the most perfect honeymoon destination! Thanks to all at Woodland's Retreats for a truly special stay. We hope to come back!

We're really pleased you enjoyed your honeymoon staying with us especially considering it was such a special occasion. Apologies about the flies, they all seemed to emerge at once during your stay due to the hot weather in July. We're pleased to say that this is no longer the case, but we do have fly lights on standby just in case this happens again.
